New Show: From Experience!

directisaa@gmail.com (Allen Steadham) — Mon, 9 Mar 2009 22:37:00 -0700

Once upon a time, Without Measure (the WOM in PODWOM) was a popular ISAA e-zine, and one of the pages in WOM's BBTeenz section was called "From Experience." Thanks to a brilliant suggestion from my wife, now we're transitioning that section from the e-zine to the podcast. Submissions requested (details in the podcast)!

The First PODWOM Is Live!

directisaa@gmail.com (Allen Steadham) — Mon, 12 Sep 2005 05:51:00 -0700

PODWOM is the abbreviation for Podcast Without Measure, the podcast edition of Without Measure (WOM), the official electronic magazine for the International Size Acceptance Association (ISAA). This is the blog for PODWOM, where I will blog about developing the podcasts and their subject matter.

Each podcast will feature unique segments, commentary plus in-depth discussions and interviews conducted by me -- the show's host, ISAA Founder and Director, Allen Steadham.

Like WOM, each segment will reflect a different element of interest concerning size acceptance, Respect Fitness Health, science, fashion, current events and much more.

The debut show features interviews with Big Fat Blog's Paul McAleer and ISAA Middle East and North Africa/ISAA UK President Fatima Parker and has a lot of focus on the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.

PODWOM's aim is to present each segment in an entertaining and informative way, made available in downloadable MP3 format. PODWOM will have new broadcasts twice per month.

You can hear the first podcast, with the theme "Re-Defining Mass Media" can be accessed HERE!

Best Wishes,
Allen
